The data to back up or rubbish my predition will be in the q3 report on the 2nd Feb 2010. I suspect in Q3 Ryanair will have made very little profit. Next year it will have to pay $100 extra per tonne of fuel and will be loss making in the winter (but profitable in the summer). When jet fuel goes back to well over $1000 ryanair could make loss over all on each year. That is why it is not ordering more planes.
